Operation White Man Can Jump

That would mean no Knicks starting for the East but I'd LOL hard if 4chan somehow make it done. I remember their prank sending Bieber on a tour to North Korea and I'm really wondering how the NBA will handle the situation. As of now it's basically 4chan v. China. I heard they got the idea after some activist organizations protested against the Timbertrolls white team.

“Lets bring america back to the 60s and vote for an all white NBA all star game,”

Lol, pathetic

Dirk, Nash, Rubio and Love are the only eligible white superstars in this list.

Out of these 4 players, Dirk is the one who should start an all-star game.

Anyway, I hate that the all-star game has a voting factor, it's just stupid. Players who play really hard and put up impressive numbers along with wins to their should be the ones considered to this game, not only the popular ones.

And why on earth would we even vote for players who are injured and never played this season? this is ridiculous.

I love Dirk, but the only ball he touched this season must be one of his 2 balls, not a basketball, so why would people vote for him or any injured player?

I remember one season when Yao Ming was considered as a starter for the all star game, but he never actually played due to his injury.

Stupid ass system for such a ridiculous game.

My Knicks are awesome, and this shall be the year of ultimate greatness

I guess that's exactly what it's all about, the current system is corrupt and this prank shows how ridiculous it can get. IMO, the league put itself into this situation, they did nothing about Yao getting ridiculous amounts of votes from China and now they'll have to deal not only with a pretty awkward problem but also with various activist organizations as this issue has a racial background. I doubt the 4chan folks were racially motivated, IMO the main ideas behind the prank were:

to expose the gap between the white minority and black majority;

to react on activists' claims concering the construction of the Minnesota team;
